DEATH OF 4 FAMOUS UNION SPI.
Pardaw Warsley. Who Followed MoSby
aad Lee, is Np More.

Pardaw Warsley. the "Union spy OF
the Shenandoah, died at his home at
Foster Brook, \. y, last week, aged
sixty seven years. Beginning life as a
fancy goods merchant il Massachusetts,
at the opening of the war he raised a
company of the Fourteenth Massachu-
sets Heavy Artillery. He was soon
afterwards employed by Major General
B. T. Butler in the name OF the United
States to go into the British provinces to
look into the system OF blockade running
then in vogue. g He was successful in
this mission, for Major-General c. C.
Augur, in his report OF August %, 1865,
says that it was through the instruner-
tally Of Mr.. War<ley that the extensive
system OF blockade-running from Balti-
more and Washington was broken up.
After returning from this trip Warsley
went out as q spy upon Mosby under
Augur, though not until he had returned
to Boston and married Helen Isabelle
Francis, who survives him.
Accompanied by his young wife,
Warsley set cut ostensibly upon ped
ding trip through Virginia. His real
object was soon suspected by Mosby,
and q spy was placed upon his track.
The spy was handsome young lady
who was to be conducted to Washington
by Warsley. The Union spy was too
smart to be caught, and, instead OF
using lis pass through the Union lines,
he conducted the lady through swamps
and by-roads until she became disguised
with the trip, and she returned to Mosby
convinced Of the loyalty Of Warsley.
Mosby was not convinced, and at one
time placed pisto! to Warsley's head,
threatening to blow his brains out The
young lady intercedea and Walslcy's
life was saved. Afterwards Mosby be-
came his firm friend, tioe,.-tt:;uy duel
with nephew CT General Lee because
Lieutenant Lee had Set a guard upon
Warsley and had condemned him as a
spy. On two occasions Warsley furnish
ed information by which the Federal
forces were enabled to surround the
house il which Mosby was Quartered,
but the dashirg Rebel cut his way out
aud escaped. On several occasions
Warsley got information OF intended
raids upon Washington in time to allow
the authorities to mass their forces and
save the capital.

President Lincoln Wars.cy Was giyeI.

stalk and blades, after removing tht
ears, as so much roughness, or ''stovcr,
fit only to be picked over by cattle, and
the bulk Of it trampled under foot intc
the manure. With their rich meadows
and mowers they cannot afford the
tedious labors involved and meagre re-
turns from the practice Of fodder-pulling
as followed by Southern farmers. They
arc right, and We are wrong in this mat
ter. II only the labor devoted to pull
ing and housing corn blades in the
South were employed in preparing
meadows and moving grass the result
would add millions of dollars to the
value Of our farm results. We would
then be encouraged to increase the area
devoted to grass for moving to any de-
sired extent, until Cur barns would be
filed with plenty for horses, mules
sheep and cattle, and the sorry spectacle
of half-famished animals, shivering in
the cold and rain, and moaning for their
stinted and often forgotten allowance Of
shucls, would be bapiShed from among
us.
To do this we are not dependent on
the doubtful success or the standard hay
grasses from abroad. We have our OWE
native-at least thoroughly Daturaiized
crab grass, crowfoot, Bermuda, and
several species of psspalums; besides
several species of millet, Indian corn,
clover, lucern, etc. Of course, if there
is no other resource for hay, and nothing
more profitable for the hands to do, the
fodder should be pulled. = common
field hand, costing say fifty cents a Gay,
can save one dollars worth of fodder,
and possibly pot seriously iniure the
corn-a very good operation. The plan
of cutting the stalks down viii not
answer in our climate, and without other
resource of better forage.
WHAT MAY BE PLANTED.
August has sometimes been called q
second spring, in alusion to the fact
that many of the crops planted first in
the earlier months may again be put in,
but chiefly because it is the beginning
of seedtime for all Of the grasses and
small grain. Many of the garden vege-
tables, including turnips, beets, beans
tomatoes, Irish potatoes, ETC., may be
planted with reasonable prospect of sue
cessful results. 1t is the main month
for sowing all the roughleaved varieties
Of turnips. Success depends-more than
in the spring-on deep preparation,
liberal manuring with well rotted stable
manure, or quickly soluble fertilizers,
and good seasons. With little effort,
and reasonable weather, most OF tie
garden vegetables may be had in plenty
until frost. We have several times sue
ceeded well in producing an abundant
supply Of tomatoes from plants grown
from cutting off the old plants. 4 cut
ting containing a vigorous shoot, with q
portion of the older stem attached, will
readily strike root; and if set in deep
y dug soil and shaded for few days it
will soon come into bearing and continue
until killed by frost.

ne was It's secretary IN 1870 and 1880,
and ITS chairman in 1881, 1899, and 1888.
The New York state delegations 30 the
NATIONAL Democratic conventions of 1876
and 1880 aud 1884 were controlled by
Mr. Manning, aud by the enforcement
oi the unit rule at Chicago he was ona-
bied for the third time 10 give the solid
vote Of tho state delegation TO
the man OF his choice. One Of
the chief causes of MIR. Manning
strength as leader OF his party was that
he never sought an Office FOR himself and
he never held one until after Cleyeland's
election. Mr.. Cleveland, upon taking
Office in March, 1855, called Mr.. Man-
ning to his Cabinet a. Secretary OF the
Treasury. The appointment VAS con.
coded 10y the country generally TO be q
strong one, and Secretary Manning con-
Quoted the affairs of the Treasury De-
pariment with eminent success for year.

/, was said, with an accident on March
n, 1886, led TO the illness from which he
never recovered The accident was
caused by spraining his ankle and falling
down n fight OF stairs III the Treasury
building.
Assistant Secretary Farchild was re-
questcd to act rs Secretary until that
time, and consented to do so. Soon AZ
ter October l, 1886, the Secretary re-
turned 10 his duties at the Treasury
somewhat improved in health and appa-
rcutiy in good spirits. The improve
meut unhappily did not long continue,
and at the end OF March last he finally
retired, his pefcmptory resignation
having been rendered and accepted on
February lith, and Mr.. Fairchild was
permanently installed as his successor
Ia the mean while the Western National
Bank. New York city, was in process Of
organization, and on the 18th OF June Of
this year MIR. Manning took his place as
president of the institution, 10 which he
had been elected some months pre-
viously. A Journey TO Europe and a
long rest apparently refreshed his shat
T tered constitution.
1t was not alone as n politician that
/ he won distinction. In 1873 he became
a director of the National Commercial
/ Bank of Albany. In 1881 he was elected
yice-president, and he succeeded to the
presidency IN the following year upon
+ the death of General Robert H. Pruyn.
For several years he was the director
for Albany in the Albany and Susque-
hanna Railway Company. lie was park

CHICAGO, December 24.-An Ozark
mo special says Colonel Anus Stone,
of this city, returned from Stone county
yesterday, and says that deadly war
fare is raging near Galena, in that coun-
ty. Very little is known of the story OF
the feud, but it seems that the Terry
brothers, five in number, living near May
burv's ferry, on the White river, have
for years defied the law and intimidated
the community. They have been charged
with various crimes, including horse
stealing, and finally vigilance commit
tee was organized to drive them ont OF
the county. The Terrys, with their
friends, overawed the leaders OF the
regulating movement, and the outlaws
held their ground.
Two weeks ago one Of the Terrys was
shot from an ambush and killed. Soon
after this one Weeks, member OF the
artillery faction, was shot by unknown
assassins. A few days after the death
OF Weeks Garrett, friend OF the Terrys,
was fired upon by Grant Wagner and
William Ambrose, who had secreted
themselves behind tree. Ambrose was
armed with a double-barrelled breech-
loading shotgun and Wagner with a re-
peating Winchester rifle. Garrett car.
ried a Winchester rifle, and when fired
upon by the assassins jumped from his
horse and took q position behind tree
and about forty-fve yards from Ambrose
and Wagner. The fight which ensued
lasted about fifteen minutes, during which
time over twenty shots were exchanged
Wagner received two mortal wounds
and his ally An brose) fed, leaving Gar
rett master of the field. About this
| time Frank Ambrose, brother of Will

upon the scene, armed with revolver
and opened fire on Garrett, killing him
